1, 2, [3]

Wouldn't it be great if I could speak another language! I would be so proud of myself. If I did so it would be as a grand undertaking, any practical benefit of being able to communicate with other people would be tertiary.

Of course I tried to learn a language before, well (tried?). I was a child and I did not have anything invested in it. Six weeks ago I was in France. I got this wonderfully small pleasure in speaking a small phrase of French. I had all of this information I never knew was useful, or realized to what extent it may be useable.
